Description
De Press – The Dream Had To End 1980–1994 – 13CD – 2025 – CCD086
De Press is a Norwegian rock band that had its heyday in 1981–1982, when they released two critically acclaimed albums. They were formed in Oslo in 1980 by the eccentric vocalist and bassist Andrej Nebb (born Andrzej Pawel Dziubek, 1954 in Poland), guitarist Jørn Christensen (born 1959) and drummer Ola Snortheim (born 1954). The box set contains 233 songs and 706 minutes of music, 107 unreleased recordings (I hope I didn't count wrong) and 14 songs that have not been released before, including 2 jammers. Absolutely everything with the original line-up.
